Brief summary

Objective: To verify the efficacy and safety of denosumab in the prevention and treatment of CKD-MBD in CKD patients with high risk of fracture. Methods: A cohort of CKD patients with high risk of fracture was established and followed up for long periods (≥24 months). Patients with CKD3b-5D stage and fracture risk assessment tool (FRAX) scores at high risk or very high risk of fracture were enrolled. A multicenter, prospective, open-label, randomised controlled, interventional study was conducted. The patients were divided into two groups. The patients in the denosumab group received subcutaneous injection of denosumab 60mg once every 6 months, and the patients in the non-denosumab group received conventional treatment. Bone metabolic markers (serum calcium, phosphorus, vitamin D, parathyroid hormone, alkaline phosphatase, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b, osteocalcin, total N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen, etc.), bone mineral density (dual-energy X-ray, quantitative CT), and vascular calcification score were regularly monitored. All adverse events (all-cause death, cardiovascular death, cardiac events, fracture, hospitalization, emergency department visits, etc.) were recorded during the follow-up period. Bone mineral density and clinical parameters were compared between the two groups.

Interventions

DRUGDenosumab

The patients in the denosumab group received subcutaneous injection of denosumab 60mg once every 6 months for 24 months.

DRUGNon-denosumab

Taken other medications, such as diphosphonates, active vitamin D and/or active vitamin D analogue, calcimimetics, calcitonin, estrogen receptor agonists, etc.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Rate of bone mineral density (BMD) decline at the lumbar spine24 monthsRate of BMD decline =\[(BMD24-BMD Baseline)÷BMD baseline\]\*100%

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Rate of fresh fractures, cardiovascular cerebrovascular adverse events and all-cause mortality24 monthsFresh fractures were new non-traumatic fractures during follow-up. Cardiovascular cerebrovascular adverse events were Acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, shock, cardiac arrest, stroke, and lower limb arterial occlusion occurred during follow-up. All-cause mortality was death from any cause during follow-up.
